Joan Tobin




The teacher was fab, explained everything really well and was really helpful and patient. The session was excellent value for money and the workshop was lovely. There was even an opportunity to add other rings in for a great price. I am delighted with my rings and already thinking who I can gift one of these sessions to. Thanks Noctua.

Joe




My partner and I went for her birthday present and we both absolutely loved it! Both teachers were excellent, super friendly, welcoming and informative about the whole process of making the rug. We came away both absolutely loving what we created so thank you to Ellsquared for putting on this amazing workshop. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to try a new craft out.

Mini Rug Tufting Workshop review by Joe - Liverpool


Angela Scott




Thank you to Anita our teacher who explained clearly how to make a candle from scratch and infuse with oil. We learnt the difference between parrafin and soywax candles. It was a fun afternoon with a group of likeminded people. The end result was a beautiful handcrafted candle. The venue was easy to find and the workshop was light and airy and comfortable to work in. My experience was bought as a Christmas  + more

Surya Tahir




I really enjoyed the lesson, I learned loads and was able to make a unique candle to show off to the family. All the materials were provided. The host was excellent, informative and helpful. The venue was brilliant: very centrally located. There is a cafe selling food and snacks, as well as a gift shop downstairs.

Sterling Silver Ring Making Class review by Ashleigh Thurston - Liverpool


Aida Alamdari




Really enjoyed this workshop. Loved the smell of the candle that I made and the explanation of how to make the candle was really good and simple to understand. Would definitely recommend! Looking forward to using my candle and the refill kit I purchased. Would have been nice if the refill kit came with one jar as makes it easier to give as gift or I can make 2 candles at the same time.

It was wonderful. The venue was great, the food fantastic and the teachers made the whole experience amazing. It was my retirement present from my school and it has totally inspired me to take up painting. We are definately coming again. What a fab night out!

Paint and Sip Party - Rainbow Cow review by Faye Rotheram - Liverpool


Beth Squires




Paint and sip was a gift for two friends as birthday gifts. This was a fab experience! The teacher was super easy to follow and the pace of the class was perfect. Great value for money and can't wait to book another class!


João




We had a really amazing time at the workshop. Ella and Leelee were super helpful throughout and super accommodating of our requests. The workshop was a gift for my partner as they'd wanted to try tufting for a while, and they really enjoyed the experience too. Would definitely recommend if visiting Liverpool!


Lynn Thorne




The foraging course was a gift from family. We arranged to meet Will at a local recreational area. An area we now will look upon with different eyes. Will was extremely knowledgeable and entertaining! A fabulous way to spend a Rainy couple of hours. Would definitely recommend to anyone thinking of doing this


Laura




The Sip and Paint class was a birthday gift and it exceeded expectations! Andrea and Lily were fantastic, knowledgeable, informative and had a lovely way about them. The whole experience was fun from start to finish. The only slight criticism would be how closely packed in we all were - more space would definitely be appreciated!


Judith




I took my nephew as a Christmas present and it honestly exceeded any of our expectations. Our teacher was great, explained everything well and was really energetic and encouraging. We had so much fun!


James Glover




Excellent value for money! Would definitely recommend and do again! Bought as a gift for family

Had the best time, booked this as a gift for my sisters birthday and we had so much fun. Met some lovely people on our table and the teachers were really nice and helpful. My stomach hurts from laughing! Will definitely book again :)


Myriam Leonard




Such a worth it experience, would definitely recommend as a gift to a partner. The teachers were also really entertaining whilst making the rings.


Beverley Roberts




Fabulous couple of hours spent learning and producing you own piece of graffiti. Excellent value th or money and perfect gift for someone who likes new experiences. Thank you x


Mark Floyd




Was a very enjoyable experience for 3 complete novices. The process of candle making was simplified so that it can easily be replicated. The materials provided were good and the teaching was informative and thorough. The building itself is worth visiting on its own and had a nice snack when waiting for the wax to set. Room itself was fine and materials and choice provided very good. Would recommend as an experience gift to others
